Slight “wind” noise due to an overhead fan barely noticeable during the quiet parts early in the show.  The PA had some technical issues during a few songs but overall the recording sounds pretty good.

This audio was posted by someone to You Tube a few years ago but I do not see it there anymore. This show was also available on my blog before Mega Upload was shut down.  

Fresh transfer May 2017.

This version is a fresh transfer from the original Mini Disc > iMac and cleaned up a bit in Audacity.

Creeper Lagoon: Bay Meadows 2000-09-08

It is really cool to hear all the recent interest in the briefly reunited Creeper Lagoon.  They were one of my favorite bands of the late 1990's - early 2000's and it was really great seeing them play again a few weeks ago (and no, I did not tape the reunion shows).

I started digging through my old Creeper Lagoon recordings and found this cool show.  It is a one-of-a-kind show and I hope you enjoy it.

Creeper Lagoon: San Mateo, CA 2000-09-08 
Venue: Bay Meadows Race Track
Length: 107 minutes

Notes:  

One of the more interesting and unique shows I have ever seen.  

Creeper Lagoon played 7 sets between the horse races at Bay Meadows Race Track.  Great mix of new and old songs and they even repeated a few.  The alternate intros and fast versions are cool too.

This was not the optimal venue for recording, they played under the grandstands of the race track. The raw audio is pretty rough and I tried to clean it up a bit in Audacity. I’m an amateur at this but I think it turned out pretty well.

Each set is a separate track, not divided into tracks for each song.

Set 1: 25 minutes
Dreaming Again
Hey Sister
Naked Days
Runaway (Dead Man Saloon)
Wonderful Love
Claustrophobia

Set 2: 12 minutes
Where Is My Mind (Pixies Cover)
Chance Of A Lifetime
Sunfair

Set 3: 14 minutes
Dear Deadly (w/ long intro)
My Friends Adore You
Tracy

Set 4: 15 minutes
Empty Ships
Tonight Was Fun (Apparently the 2017 reunion wasn’t the first performance)
Centipede Eyes

Set 5: 16 minutes
Dreaming Again (fast version)
Wrecking Ball
Keep From Moving

Set 6: 14 minutes
Under The Tracks
Hey Sister
Runaway (w/ different intro)

Set 7: 12 minutes
Tracy
Wonderful Love (fast version)
Dear Deadly

Reposted some shows (Mostly Creeper Lagoon)

I reposted some of my old live recordings.  Check out the Google Drive folder link below.

In honor of the return of Creeper Lagoon I am sharing these again.  Some of these shows had been traded on CD-R back in the day and I think a few are completely uncirculated until now.

Most of the shows are my Creeper Lagoon recordings from 1999-2001 + a few other Creeper Lagoon shows I found over the years.  I threw in some No Knife just for fun.  The Death Cab for Cutie, Appleseed Cast and Cursive shows have been available for a while now.

These are my best sounding Creeper Lagoon shows.  I have a few more that aren't that great but let me know if you want to hear them.

Enjoy the shows!  And check out Creeper Lagoon, they are playing a few shows this week and next.
